Welcome to Creative Review’s 2011 Graduate Guide. This year we focus on self-promotion, with the Miami Ad School in NYC offering advice on the things you’ll need alongside a great portfolio; and illustrator Johanna Basford on how she uses her website, blog and Twitter to get great client work. We also look at a new design educa
tion initiative, the Lost in the Forest Institute, who put their “ learning by doing” approach into practice by designing the guide for us this year. Lastly, wemeet designer }ake Jennings, aka ‘Placement Man’ as he’s become known. Nine placements in a row and he’s still far from ready to hang up his cape - he tells Jonny Burch of ShellsuitZombie what keeps him going. Enjoy the issue.
